Description

基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法、基站和终端设备 技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,并且更具体地,涉及一种基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法、基站和终端设备。
背景技术
在非授权频段上为了让长期演进系统(Long Term Evolution,LTE)设备和无线保真(Wireless Fidelity,WiFi)公平的竞争资源,第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)在LTE辅助接入(LTE Assisted Access,LAA)技术中引入了先听后说(Listen Before Talk,LBT)机制,用于LTE设备在非授权频段上监听和检测空闲信道。
在现有技术中,基站以带有随机回退的空闲信道评测(Clear Channel Assessment,CCA)对载波进行评测,当CCA操作成功时,基站可以在最大信道占用时间或者最大载波占用时间(Maximum Channel Occupancy Time,MCOT)内通过该载波向终端设备发送下行信息,此外,基站还可以把该MCOT中的一部分时间共享给终端设备,使得终端设备能够以单时隙CCA对载波进行检测,并在该载波上进行上行信息的传输,使得终端设备能够利用该载波向基站发送上行信息。现有技术中仅仅给出了基站以带有随机回退的CCA操作的载波可以共享给终端设备发送上行数据,没有考虑到其它类型的载波,载波的利用效率有限。
发明内容
本发明提供了一种基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法、基站和终端设备,以更好地利用非授权频谱资源进行通信。
第一方面,提供了一种基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法,包括:基站以第一信道空闲评测CCA占用非授权频谱上的第一载波,所述第一CCA为带有随机回退的CCA;所述基站以第二CCA占用非授权频谱上的第二载波,所述第二CCA为单时隙CCA;所述基站向终端设备发送第一指示信息,所述第一指示信息用于指示所述终端设备在所述第二载波向所述基站发送上行信息;所述基站在所述第二载波接收所述终端设备发送的所述上行信息。
在现有技术中,基站仅可以将以带有随机回退的CCA在非授权频谱上占用的载波共享给终端设备,使得终端设备能在该载波上向基站发送上行信息。而并未规定基站以其它CCA操作在非授权频谱上占用的载波共享给终端设备,非授权频谱的利用效率较低。而在本发明中,通过将基站以单时隙CCA占用的载波共享给终端设备,使得终端设备也能够利用该载波传输上行信息,提高了非授权频谱资源的利用率。
结合第一方面,在第一方面的第一种实现方式中,所述第一指示信息具体用于指示所述终端设备在第一最大载波占用时间MCOT内在所述第二载波向所述基站发送所述上行信息,所述第一MCOT为所述基站能占用所述第一载波的最大连续时长。
结合第一方面的第一种实现方式,在第一方面的第二种实现方式中,所述第一MCOT是根据所述第一CCA的竞争窗口和/或所述基站进行所述第一CCA时对应的下行业务的等级确定的。
终端设备在第一MCOT内向基站发送上行信息时可以利用基站占用第一载波的剩余时间向基站发送上行信息,便于终端设备利用第一载波发送上行信息。
一般来说,由于基站以第一CCA占用第一载波的难度相对较大,因此第一MCOT一般较大,这样当终端设备在第一MCOT内在第一载波上向基站发送上行信息时能够有更充分的时间,有利于终端设备更好地发送上行信息。
结合第一方面,以及第一方面的第一种和第二种实现方式中的任意一种,在第一方面的第三种实现方式中,所述方法还包括:所述基站向所述终端设备发送第二指示信息,所述第二指示信息用于指示所述终端设备在发送所述上行信息之前对所述第二载波进行的第三CCA的CCA类型,所述第三CCA的CCA类型为带有随机回退的CCA或者单时隙CCA。
基站可以根据载波的实际情况确定第三CCA的CCA类型,并且通过第二指示信息直接或者间接通知终端设备第三CCA的CCA类型。
通过第二指示信息能够指示第三CCA的类型,便于终端设备以第三CCA对第一载波进行CCA操作。
结合第一方面的第三种实现方式,在第一方面的第四种实现方式中,所述第二指示信息携带第三CCA的间隔信息,所述第三CCA的间隔信息用于 指示所述第三CCA的CCA类型。
通过第二指示信息中的第三CCA的间隔信息,能够根据CCA间隔与CCA类型的对应关系间接的确定第三CCA的CCA类型。
第二方面,提供了一种基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法,包括:终端设备确定基站在非授权频谱上占用的第一载波和第二载波,其中,所述基站以第一信道空闲评测CCA占用所述第一载波,以第二CCA占用所述第二载波,所述第一CCA为带有随机回退的CCA,所述第二CCA为单时隙CCA;所述终端设备接收所述基站的第一指示信息,所述第一指示信息用于指示所述终端设备在所述第二载波向所述基站发送上行信息;所述终端设备根据所述第一指示信息在所述第二载波向所述基站发送所述上行信息。
在现有技术中,终端设备只能够共享基站以带有随机回退的CCA在非授权频谱上占用的载波,也就是说终端设备可以在该载波上向基站发送上行信息。但是现有技术中并未规定终端设备是否可以共享基站以其它CCA操作在非授权频谱上占用的载波,也就是说终端设备只能共享基站占用的一部分载波来发送上行信息,非授权频谱的利用效率较低。而在本发明中,通过将基站以单时隙CCA占用的载波共享给终端设备,使得终端设备也能够利用该载波传输上行信息,提高了非授权频谱资源的利用率。
结合第二方面,在第二方面的第一种实现方式中,所述终端设备根据所述第一指示信息在所述第二载波向所述基站发送上行信息,包括:所述终端设备在第一最大载波占用时间MCOT内在所述第二载波向所述基站发送所述上行信息,其中,所述第一MCOT为所述基站能占用所述第一载波的最大连续时长。
结合第二方面的第一种实现方式,在第二方面的第二种实现方式中,所述第一MCOT是根据所述第一CCA的竞争窗口和/或所述基站进行所述第一CCA时对应的下行业务的等级确定的。
结合第二方面,以及第二方面的第一种和第二种实现方式中的任意一种,在第二方面的第三种实现方式中,所述终端设备在根据所述第一指示信息在所述第二载波向所述基站发送上行信息之前,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备对所述第二载波进行第三CCA;所述终端设备根据所述第一指示信息在所述第一载波向所述基站发送上行信息,包括:在所述第三CCA操作成功的情况下,所述终端设备在所述第一载波向所述基站发送上行信息。
结合第二方面,以及第二方面的第一种至第三种实现方式中的任意一种,在第二方面的第四种实现方式中,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备接收所述基站的第二指示信息;所述终端设备根据所述第二指示信息确定所述第三CCA的CCA类型,所述第三CCA的CCA类型为带有随机回退的CCA或者单时隙CCA。
结合第二方面的第四种实现方式,在第二方面的第五种实现方式中,所述第二指示信息包含第三CCA的CCA间隔信息,所述终端设备根据所述第二指示信息确定所述第三CCA的CCA类型,包括:所述终端设备根据所述第三CCA的CCA间隔,以及CCA间隔与候选CCA类型的对应关系确定所述第三CCA的CCA类型,其中,所述候选CCA类型包括带有随机回退的CCA以及单时隙CCA。
第三方面,提供一种基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法,包括:终端设备根据非授权频谱上的多个载波的能量检测门限确定非授权频谱上的第一载波的能量检测门限;所述终端设备根据所述第一载波的能量检测门限对所述第一载波进行第一CCA,所述第一CCA为单时隙CCA;所述终端设备根据所述多个载波的能量检测门限分别对所述多个载波进行第二CCA,所述第二CCA为带有随机回退的CCA。
在现有技术中,基站在对非授权频谱上的多个载波进行CCA检测时(其中基站对第一载波是做带有随机回退的CCA,对其它载波是做单时隙CCA),是将其它载波的能量检测门限值设置为与第一载波的能量检测门限值相同。这种方式中,其它载波的能量检测门限都要与第一载波的能量检测门限保持一致,缺乏灵活性。而在本发明中,终端设备在对非授权频谱上的多个载波进行CCA检测时(终端设备对第一载波做单时隙CCA,对其它的多个载波做带有随机回退的CCA),是根据多个载波的能量检测门限来设置第一载波的能量检测门限,是综合考虑了多个载波的能量检测门限来设置第一载波的能量检测门限,能够根据各个载波的情况,更合理的确定第一载波的能量检测门限。
结合第三方面,在第三方面的第一种实现方式中,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备根据所述第一CCA和所述第二CCA的操作结果确定是否在所述第一载波和所述多个载波上发送上行信息。
结合第三方面或者第三方面的第一种实现方式,在第三方面的第二种实 现方式中,所述终端设备根据所述非授权频谱上的多个载波的能量检测门限确定非授权频谱上的第一载波的能量检测门限,包括:所述终端设备根据所述多个载波中的第二载波的能量检测门限确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限,其中,所述第二载波的能量检测门限是所述多个载波的能量检测门限中最小的能量检测门限。
由于以单时隙CCA占用载波的难度大于带有随机回退的CCA占用载波的难度,而能量检测门限的值越小占用载波的难度就越大,因此考虑到占用载波的公平性,在设置第一载波的能量检测门限时可以参照最小的能量检测门限。
结合第三方面的第二种实现方式,在第三方面的第三种实现方式中,所述终端设备根据所述多个载波中的第二载波的能量检测门限确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限,包括:所述终端设备确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限小于或者等于所述第二载波的能量检测门限。
通过将第一载波的能量检测门限设置为小于第二载波的能量检测门限考虑到了终端设备占用各个载波的公平性,能够相对公平地利用非授权频谱资源。
结合第三方面或者第三方面的第一种实现方式,在第三方面的第四种实现方式中,所述终端设备根据所述非授权频谱上的多个载波的能量检测门限确定非授权频谱上的第一载波的能量检测门限,包括:所述终端设备根据所述多个载波中的第三载波的能量检测门限确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限,其中,所述第三载波为所述多个载波中索引号最大或者最小的载波。
在设置第一载波的能量检测门限时,为了方便,也可以随机选择索引号最大或者最小的载波的能量检测门限来确定第一载波的能量检测门限。
结合第三方面的第四种实现方式,在第三方面的第五种实现方式中,所述终端设备根据所述多个载波中的第三载波的能量检测门限确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限,包括:所述终端设备确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限小于或者等于所述第三载波的能量检测门限。
一般来说,将第一载波的能量检测门限设置为小于第三载波的能量检测门限考虑到了终端设备占用各个载波的公平性,能够较合理地利用非授权频谱资源。
在某些实现方式中,所述多个载波包含第四载波和第五载波,所述第四 载波和第五载波的能量检测门限在所述多个载波中能量检测门限值最小的两个载波,所述第一载波的能量检测门限为所述第四载波和第五载波的能量检测门限的平均值。
在某些实现方式中,所述第一载波的能量检测门限在第四载波的能量检测门限和第五载波的能量检测门限之间,并且,所述第一载波的能量检测门限与所述第四载波的能量检测门限的差值为预设阈值,或者,所述第五载波的能量检测门限与所述第一载波的能量检测门限的差值为预设阈值。
在某些实现方式中,所述多个载波包含第六载波和第七载波,所述第六载波和第七载波分别是所述多个载波中索引号最大和最小的载波,所述第一载波的能量检测门限为所述第六载波和第七载波的能量检测门限的平均值。
在某些实现方式中,所述第一载波的能量检测门限在第六载波的能量检测门限和第七载波的能量检测门限之间,并且,所述第一载波的能量检测门限与所述第六载波的能量检测门限的差值为预设阈值,或者,所述第七载波的能量检测门限与所述第一载波的能量检测门限的差值为预设阈值。
在某些实现方式中,所述第一载波的能量检测门限为所述多个载波的能量检测门限的平均值。
第四方面,提供一种基站,所述基站包括用于执行上述第一方面的方法的模块。
第五方面,提供一种终端设备,所述终端设备包括用于执行上述第二方面的方法的模块。
第六方面,提供一种终端设备,所述终端设备包括用于执行上述第三方面的方法的模块。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创 造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
应理解,本发明的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、先进的长期演进(Advanced long term evolution,LTE-A)系统、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、5G等。
本发明实施例中的终端设备也可以指用户设备(User Equipment,UE)、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。接入终端可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(Session Initiation Protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop,WLL)站、个人数字处理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备,未来5G网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的公用陆地移动通信网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)中的终端设备等,本发明实施例并不限定。
本发明实施例中,基站可以是GSM或CDMA中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS),也可以是WCDMA中的基站(NodeB),还可以是LTE中的演进型基站(evolved Node B,eNB或e-NodeB),还可以是5G中的用于提供接入服务的接入点,本发明实施例并不限定。
图1是本发明实施例的基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法的示意性流程图。图1的方法包括:
110、基站以第一CCA占用非授权频谱上的第一载波,其中,第一CCA为带有随机回退的CCA。
120、基站以第二CCA占用非授权频谱上的第二载波,第二CCA为单时隙CCA。
应理解,在本发明实施例中,在第一CCA和第二CCA均操作成功的情况下,基站可以在第一载波和第二载波同时发送下行信息。如果第一CCA操作不成功,那么无论第二CCA操作是否成功基站都不能在第二载波发送下行信息。
上述非授权频谱可以是LTE授权频谱之外的频谱,例如,非授权频谱可以是5GHz频段上的频谱。
基站在对第一载波进行第一CCA时,是根据一个预设的竞争窗口值随机选择一个回退计数器,然后对第一载波进行第一CCA,如果信道空闲,则回退计数器减1,如果信道不空闲,那么回退计数器的数值保持不变,如此循环下去,直到回退计数器的数值减到0,这时基站才可以在该载波上发送信息。
基站在占用第二载波之前,以第二CCA对第一载波进行评测,具体来说,只要基站侦测到第二载波空闲就可以在第二载波上发送信息,而不用像带有随机回退的CCA需要有回退的过程。另外,单时隙CCA的时隙长度的取值可以是预定义的,可以是基站自身配置的,也可以根据一定的规则来设定。较为常见的单时隙CCA的时隙长度为16微秒、25微秒。
可选地,在第一CCA和第二CCA操作成功的情况下,基站可以在第一载波和第二载波向上述终端设备或者其他的设备发送下行信息。
应理解,在这里,第一CCA操作成功是指基站在对第一载波进行CCA时,回退计数器的计数数值减到0,基站可以占用第一载波一段时间,并在第一载波上发送信号。而第二CCA操作成功是指基站只要在某个时隙长度范围内侦听到载波空闲,就可以在该载波上发送信息。
应理解,第一CCA需要在多个时隙内检测到信道空闲才能在载波上发送信号,而第二CCA只要在某个时隙内检测到载波空闲就可以在该载波上发送信号,因此,对于同一个载波来说,采用第一CCA占用载波的难度较大,而采用第二CCA占用载波的难度相对较低。
应理解,当对载波进行检测时,如果检测到信道的能量低于预设阈值,那么就可以认为信道空闲,此时没有其它的设备占用信道,如果检测到信道的能量大于或者等于预设阈值,那么就可以认为信道处于不空闲或者忙碌状态,此时有其它的设备占用该信道。
应理解,本发明实施例中提到的载波也就是信道,载波和信道不做区分。
CCA的类型具体可以分为类型4(category4)、类型3(category3)、类型2(category2)和类型1(category1),各种类型的CCA的含义具体如下:
category4,节点在对载波进行检测时设置一个可变长度的竞争窗口,并在竞争窗口范围内随机选择一个回退计数器,当载波空闲时回退计数器的计 数数值减1,当载波不空闲时回退计数器的计数数值保持不变,一直循环下去,直到回退计数器的数值减为0节点才可以在该载波上发送信息;
category3,节点在对载波进行检测时设置一个固定长度的竞争窗口,并在该竞争窗口范围内随机选择一个随机回退器,当载波空闲时回退计数器的计数数值减1,当载波不空闲时回退计数器的计数数值保持不变,一直循环下去,直到回退计数器的数值减为0节点就可以在该载波上发送信息,category3与category4的区别在于,category3的竞争窗口的长度是固定的。
category2,节点在对载波进行检测时,只要在一个固定时间(如16微秒、25微秒)内检测到载波处于空闲状态就可以直接在该载波上发送信息;
category1,节点不对载波进行侦听就直接在载波上发送信息。
应理解,在上述CCA类型中,category4和category3为带有随机回退的CCA,category2为单时隙CCA。另外,单时隙CCA也不限定于上述category2的CCA,也可以扩展到其他单时隙CCA,比如不需要在固定时间检测25微秒,而是可以在一个时间窗口内多次检测25微秒,只要有一次检测到载波空闲,就可以算作单时隙CCA成功。
130、基站向终端设备发送第一指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示终端设备在第二载波向基站发送上行信息。
可选地,作为一个实施例,基站在接收到上述第一指示信息后,首先对第二载波进行第三CCA,在第三CCA操作成功的情况下,在第一载波向基站发送上行信息。
可选地,终端设备在接收到上述第一指示信息后,在第一MCOT内在第二载波向基站发送上行信息,其中,第一MCOT为基站能占用第一载波的最大连续时长。
应理解,当存在多个第二载波和一个第一载波时,终端设备可以在第一MCOT内在多个第二载波上发送上行信息。
可选地,上述第一MCOT是根据第一CCA的竞争窗口和/或基站进行所述第一CCA时对应的下行业务的等级确定的。
也就是说,第一MCOT与基站在第一载波上所做的带有随机回退的CCA的参数对应,该参数可以包括基站在第一载波上所做的带有随机回退的CCA的竞争窗口值和基站在第一载波上所做的带有随机回退的CCA所对应的下行业务等级中的至少一种。例如,竞争窗口值越大,第一MCOT越 大,业务等级越高,第一MCOT越小。
应理解,终端设备可以在第一MCOT内在第二载波向基站发送上行信息,此时可以理解为基站在第二载波上的第二MCOT可以与第一MCOT相等。也就是说基站做单时隙CCA的多个载波与上述做带有随机回退的CCA的一个载波当前具有共同的MCOT,也就是上述第一MCOT,该多载波共同的第一MCOT是由基站做带有随机回退的CCA的CCA参数确定的。
终端设备既可以在第一MCOT内也可以在第二MCOT内在第二载波向基站发送上行信息。这里的第二MCOT为基站能占用第二载波的最大连续时长。与第一MCOT类似,第二MCOT也可以是根据第一CCA的竞争窗口和/或基站进行所述第二CCA时对应的下行业务的等级确定的。
应理解,终端设备在第一MCOT或者第二MCOT内在第二载波上向基站发送上行信息是指终端设备在第一MCOT或者第二MCOT内除去基站占用的时间之外的剩余时间内发送上行信息。例如,第一MCOT为10ms,基站实际占用第二载波的时间为4ms,那么终端设备可以在剩余的6ms时间内占用第二载波,并在第二载波上向基站发送上行信息,或者,第二MCOT为6ms,基站实际占用第一载波的时间为4ms,那么终端设备可以在剩余的2ms时间占用第二载波,并在第二载波上向基站发送上行信息。一般来说,第一MCOT要大于第二MCOT,这是因为采用第一CCA占用载波的难度相对较大,但是一旦抢占了载波就会分配一个较长的占用时间,而采用第二CCA容易占用载波,占用载波的时间相对较短。因此,当终端设备在第一MCOT内向基站发送上行信息时,终端设备能占用第二载波发送上行信息的时间变长了。因此,本发明实施例中,终端设备既可以在第一MCOT也可以在第二MCOT范围内向基站发送上行信息,提高了终端设备利用第一载波发送上行信息的灵活性。
140、基站在第二载波上接收终端设备发送的上行信息。
本发明实施例中,基站可以将以单时隙CCA占用的载波也共享给终端设备使用,使得终端设备该载波上也能发送上行信息,提高了非授权频谱资源的利用率。
可选地,作为一个实施例,基站向终端设备发送第二指示信息,该第二指示信息用于指示终端设备在发送上行信息之前对第二载波进行的第三CCA的CCA类型,其中,上述第三CCA的类型可以为带有随机回退的CCA 或者单时隙CCA。
应理解,上述第二指示信息可以直接指示CCA的类型,终端设备在接收到该第二指示信息后就可以直接根据第二指示信息指示的CCA类型对第二载波进行评测。终端设备对第二载波进行的第三CCA的类型可以由基站决定,基站可以通过第二指示信息指示终端设备以单时隙CCA直接对第二载波进行评测,这样使得终端设备能够在检测到第二载波空闲时就可以利用第二载波向基站发送上行信息,便于终端设备快速占有第二载波并向基站发送上行信息。而当基站通过第二指示信息指示终端设备以带有随机回退的CCA对第二载波进行评测时,这时终端设备相对来说占用第二载波的难度增大了,只有在带有随机回退的CCA完全操作成功的情况下才能在第二载波上发送上行信息。
可选地,作为一个实施例,第二指示信息中携带第三CCA的间隔信息,该第三CCA的间隔信息用于指示终端设备在发送上行信息之前对第二载波进行的第三CCA的CCA类型。
当终端接收到上述二指示信息后,可以根据第三CCA的CCA间隔,以及CCA间隔与候选CCA类型的对应关系确定第三CCA的CCA类型,其中,候选CCA的类型包括带有随机回退的CCA以及单时隙CCA。
应理解,上述第二指示信息中的第三CCA的CCA间隔信息间接指示了CCA的类型,终端设备在接收到该CCA间隔指示信息后需要先根据该CCA间隔指示信息来确定第三CCA的CCA类型,然后再对第二载波进行第三CCA。例如,第一CCA间隔对应带有随机回退的CCA,第二CCA间隔时对应单时隙CCA。当上述CCA间隔指示信息携带的是第一CCA间隔信息时,终端设备确定第三CCA为带有随机回退的CCA;当上述CCA间隔指示信息携带的是第二CCA间隔信息时,终端设备确定第三CCA为单时隙CCA。
终端设备在第二载波上发送上行信息时,基站是将传输下行信息的传输机会共享给了终端设备,使得终端设备能够用来传输上行信息。使得上行和下行可以共用相同的载波传输信息,提高了载波资源的利用率。
假设基站在第一载波上做category4(允许基站占用第一载波的时间为第二MCOT),在第二载波上做category2(允许基站占用第二载波的时间为第一MCOT),基站可以在第二MCOT内将第二载波上发送下行信息的发送机 会共享给终端设备发送上行信息使用,基站还可以在第一MCOT内将在第一载波上发送下行信息的发送机会共享给终端设备发送上行信息。其中,终端设备在第二载波上向基站发送上行信息对第一载波进行LBT的类型包括以下三种情况:
第一种情况,在第一MCOT内,终端设备在第二载波上向基站发送上行信息,也就是说基站不把第二MCOT共享给终端设备,而是将第一MCOT共享给终端设备,使得终端设备在第一MCOT范围内在第一载波上发送上行信息。例如,第一MCOT为8ms,而基站发送下行信息占用了4ms,那么剩下的4ms不仅可以供终端设备在第二载波上传输上行信息时使用category2,也可以供终端设备在第一载波上传输上行信息使用category4,也就是可以实现跨载波共享MCOT。
第二种情况,在第二MCOT内,终端设备在第二载波上向基站发送上行信息。具体地,基站可以确定第二载波上的业务的优先级,然后根据业务的优先级与MCOT值的对应关系(一般来说,每种业务优先级都对应一个MCOT值,例如,业务优先级越高MCOT值往往越小)确定第一载波上的第二MCOT值。如果基站发送下行信息和终端设备发送上行信息总共占用的时间在第二MCOT内,那么终端设备在第二载波上向基站发送上行信息之前,终端设备可以进行category2,否则终端设备需要做category4。
第三种情况,无论是在第一MCOT内或者第二MCOT内,UE只能进行category4。
以上结合图1从基站的角度对本发明实施例的基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法进行了描述,下面结合图2从终端设备的角度对本发明实施例的基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法进行详细的描述。
图2是本发明实施例的基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法的示意性流程图。图2的方法包括:
210、终端设备确定基站在非授权频谱上占用的第一载波和第二载波,其中,基站以第一信道空闲评测CCA占用所述第一载波,以第二CCA占用所述第二载波,所述第一CCA为带有随机回退的CCA,所述第二CCA为单时隙CCA;
220、终端设备接收基站的第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示终端设备在第二载波向基站发送上行信息;
230、所述终端设备根据所述第一指示信息在所述第二载波上向所述基站发送上行信息。
本发明实施例中,基站可以将以单时隙CCA占用的载波也共享给终端设备使用,使得终端设备该载波上也能发送上行信息,提高了非授权频谱资源的利用率。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述终端设备根据所述第一指示信息在所述第二载波上向所述基站发送上行信息,包括:所述终端设备在第一最大载波占用时间MCOT内在所述第二载波向所述基站发送所述上行信息,其中,所述第一MCOT为所述基站能占用所述第一载波的最大连续时长。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述第一MCOT是根据所述第一CCA的竞争窗口和/或所述基站进行所述第一CCA时对应的下行业务的等级确定的。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述终端设备在根据所述第一指示信息在所述第二载波向所述基站发送上行信息之前,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备对所述第二载波进行第三CCA;所述终端设备根据所述第一指示信息在所述第一载波向所述基站发送上行信息,包括:在所述第三CCA操作成功的情况下,所述终端设备在所述第一载波向所述基站发送上行信息。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述终端设备接收所述基站的第二指示信息;所述终端设备根据所述第二指示信息确定所述第三CCA的CCA类型,所述第三CCA的CCA类型为带有随机回退的CCA或者单时隙CCA。。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述第二指示信息包含第三CCA的CCA间隔信息,所述终端设备根据所述第二指示信息确定所述第三CCA的CCA类型,包括:所述终端设备根据所述第三CCA的CCA间隔,以及CCA间隔与候选CCA类型的对应关系确定所述第三CCA的CCA类型,其中,所述候选CCA类型包括带有随机回退的CCA以及单时隙CCA。
以上结合图1和图2分别从基站和终端设备的角度对本发明实施例的基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法进行了详细的描述。事实上,终端设备在共享基站占用的载波发送上行信息时,首先要对载波进行CCA检测。在对载波进行CCA检测时,可以通过判断载波上的信号的能量,当信号能量低于某一门限值时就认为载波处于空闲状态。因此,终端设备在共享基站占用的载波时如何设置CCA检测时的能量检测门限是一个需要考虑的问题。
在现有技术中,如果基站对多个载波进行CCA检测,并且对第一载波 进行检测时采用的是带有随机回退的CCA,并且对第一载波进行检测时的能量检测门限为第一能量检测门限,那么基站在对其余的载波进行CCA检测时的能量检测门限也设置为第一能量检测门限,也就是与对第一载波进行检测时的能量检测门限保持一致。但是这种方式缺乏灵活性,没有综合考虑多个载波的性能,并且没有规定终端设备在发送上行信息之前对载波进行CCA检测的能量门限,因此,需要有一种新的方法来确定终端设备在共享基站占用的载波并发送上行信息之前如何确定对载波进行的CCA的能量检测门限。下面结合图3对本发明实施例的基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法进行详细的描述。
图3是本发明实施例的基于非授权频谱的无线通信方法的示意性流程图。图3的方法包括:
310、终端设备根据非授权频谱上的多个载波的能量检测门限确定非授权频谱上的第一载波的能量检测门限;
320、终端设备根据第一载波的能量检测门限对第一载波进行第一CCA,第一CCA为单时隙CCA。
330、终端设备根据多个载波的能量检测门限分别对多个载波进行第二CCA,第二CCA为带有随机回退的CCA。
可选地,上述第一载波和多个载波可以是基站在进行CCA并且CCA成功之后占有的载波,基站将第一载波分享给终端设备使得终端设备能够在第一载波上发送上行信息。
应理解,终端设备在对上述多个载波进行CCA的能量检测门限可以相同也可以不同,例如,共有三个载波,那么对这三个载波分别进行CCA的能量检测门限可以是三个不同的值,也可以是其它的取值。
本发明实施例中,在终端设备发送多载波的上行信息的情况下,终端设备综合多个载波(该多个载波时以带有随机回退的CCA占用的载波)的能量检测门限能够更合理确定单时隙CCA操作的载波的能量检测门限。
可选地,作为一个实施例,终端设备根据第一CCA和第二CCA的操作结果确定是否在第一载波和多个载波上发送上行信息。
当第一CCA和第二CCA均操作成功的情况下,终端设备可以在第一载波和多个载波发送上行信息。当只有第一CCA操作成功时,终端设备可以只在第一载波发送上行信息。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述终端设备根据所述多个载波中的第二载波的能量检测门限确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限,其中,所述第二载波的能量检测门限是所述多个载波的能量检测门限中最小的能量检测门限。
由于以单时隙CCA占用载波的难度大于以带有随机回退的CCA占用载波的难度,而能量检测门限的值越小占用载波的难度就越大,因此考虑到占用载波的公平性,在设置第一载波的能量检测门限时可以参照最小的能量检测门限。
优选地,上述第一载波的能量检测门限小于或者等于所述第二载波的能量检测门限,具体地,第一载波的能量检测门限可以小于第二载波的能量检测门限,并且第二载波的能量检测门限与第一载波的能量检测门限的差值为预设的第一差值。
将第一载波的能量检测门限设置为小于或者等于第二载波的能量检测门限使得终端设备在对第一载波进行CCA操作时的条件更为苛刻,能够更加均衡地考虑各个载波传输上行信息的公平性。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述终端设备根据所述多个载波中的第三载波的能量检测门限确定所述第一载波的能量检测门限,其中,所述第三载波为所述多个载波中索引号最大或者最小的载波。
优选地,上述第一载波能量检测门限小于或者等于所述第三载波的能量检测门限,具体地,第一载波的能量检测门限可以小于第三载波的能量检测门限,并且,第三载波的能量检测门限与第一载波的能量检测门限的差值为预设的第三差值。
可选地,作为一个实施例,所述终端设备将所述多个载波的能量检测门限的平均值确定为第一载波的能量检测门限。
具体地,当多个载波包含10个载波时可以从中任意选取两个载波,将该两个载波的能量检测门限的平均值设置为第一载波的能量检测门限。当然,也可以将其中的3个或3个以上载波的能量检测门限的平均值设置为第一载波的能量检测门限。
可选地,还可以从多个载波中任意选择两个载波,将第一载波的能量检测门限设置在这两个载波的能量检测门限之间。
